7 Things to Know About Trinity's "Desert Rain"

Awards-winning, Netherlands-based band Trinity will release Desert Rain globally from The Fuel Music. Here are seven things to know about the album:
1. Global release date: Feb. 25.
2. Desert Rain was first released in the Netherlands in 2016. Already receiving three Dutch, Silver Dove Awards, including "Album Of The Year," the album from these "craftsmen of heavenly parties" mixes music styles from all over the world to create a magnetic sound, blending genres into an eclectic music experience that is sweet to the ears and uplifting to the soul."
3.The world-music pop flair of the album was inspired by the band's travels internationally, jamming with immigrant-musicians wherever they were in time and space. The resulting warm-blooded, passionate rhythms and melodies are steeped with lyrics birthed in real-life stories, all offering hope for a brighter future.
4. The lead single from the album, "Metropolitain," was written with Senegal-based artist Bernard Cissa and features lyrics in both English and French. "I think I have a love-hate relationship with cities," says Elbert, who crafted the song's chorus while in Paris, France. "The city is this creativity-magnet just for the buzz. But it will drive you crazy just as easily. If you can't keep up in the rat race you end up in the gutter. At the same time cities can be birthplaces of art, culture and new ideas that help humanity improve life."
5. "When we recorded Desert Rain, we set out to create an album that captures our experiences and faith in songs; an album that shows both the darkness of the world we live in and the light piercing through it," says Trinity's Elbert Smelt (lead vocals, flutes, saxophone). "It shares the conviction that we as human beings are meant for more. When people make peace, join hands and stand against injustice, and feel hope rising up -- when someone is healed and when you hear beautiful music: then the real world is visible."
